Good buy,
Excellent Value,
Edit: used on a second floor installation. Installed a new 40 grit aftermarket brand belt when the original belt finally started to wear out. The belt replacement couldn’t have been easier.
Again worked perfectly with no issues whatsoever and excellent results.
The tool I wished I’d had as a teenager doing woodwork,
I have used electrical sanders since I was 10 years old. I started with a big-name brand vibrating sander. I actually don’t know what they’re good for.
Then, I used a machine-shop grade belt sander at the age of 15. Amazing.
Even more amazing: The purchase price of this powerful little machine.
Note: The cannister cannot capture all of the sawdust or paint chips, but it will get most of it. So do be prepared to vacuum up after your job; The reason that this belt sander is effective is because that belt of high-grit paper spits off a lot of debris at contact with the door, or floor, or whatever you are sanding.
